Harry Potter
and the Philosophers Stone

By J.K. Rowling

‘Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone’ is the first novel in the Harry Potter series written by J.K. Rowling. Harry Potter is a young boy who discovers he is a wizard. He is orphaned at a very early age and grows up not knowing that he is a wizard. On the night of his eleventh birthday he finds out he’s a wizard and he gets invited to go to school at Hogwarts, the school of Witchcraft and Wizardry to learn magic.

Black Magic and the Power of Sacred Love

At Hogwarts, he learns real magic spells and makes friends with Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger; who end up helping him thwart an attempted comeback by an evil wizard named Voldemort. Voldermort used dark magic to kill Harry’s parents and tried to kill Harry when he was one-year-old.

Voldemort was unsuccessful in killing Harry, because a kind of magic unknown him, is used to shield Harry from his dark art. Harry then becomes the only person who can destroy Voldermort forever. Harry also makes a few enemies along the way, enemies who it would appear, are circling the dark wizard’s axis of evil.

The Absolute Value of Endless Love

Every time I read Harry Potter I learn something new. In this book, I got to experience the power and greatness of endless love, true friendship and hope. I especially like the reference to the school houses, and how the personal values of the students, determines the houses they are sorted into. This is a great reflection of the personal core values we choose to hold within ourselves.

For the Tropic of Freedom Finders Keepers:
After reading this book and looking at the choices that Harry makes; I realize that the choices and decisions we make are affected by the core values we hold within us. Why this is so important, is because, these core values establish who and what we are becoming.

What have you made your core values? Who and what have your core values assisted you to Become?
